Market Driver

Simulation-based casting is a modern approach used in the production of economical, reliable, and high-accuracy components in the foundry industry. This technology enables the prediction and elimination of internal defects such as porosity, thereby reducing expenses related to the manufacturing of defective castings, their transportation, and associated warranties and penalties. Additionally, it improves casting yield by reducing the volume of gating and feeder channels per casting, which in turn increases the overall production capacity and effective melting cost per casting. Furthermore, simulation-based casting facilitates rapid development by minimizing the number of foundry trials and enabling the creation of new castings quickly. These advantages are particularly beneficial for industries requiring castings with precise dimensions, such as automotive and industrial machinery manufacturers. The adoption of simulation-based casting helps reduce wastage and operational costs while ensuring precise designing, ultimately driving the growth of the foundry equipment market during the forecast period. 

The Foundry Equipment Market is experiencing significant trends in various sectors. In the Automotive industry, there’s a growing focus on sustainable vehicles and lightweight materials like aluminum and steel castings. Coremaking machines and moulding machines are in high demand for producing quality-assured passenger cars and light trucks.

Market Challenges

The metal casting industry is a significant energy consumer, with natural gas and electricity being the primary sources for plant operation and metal finishing. With economic growth leading to a power deficit in many developing countries, including India, the third-largest market for metal castings, the energy demands of the industry are expected to rise. Most energy usage goes towards melting metals, but mold-making and core-making also require substantial energy. The casting industry’s energy intensity makes energy efficiency and alternative energy sources crucial concerns for market players. However, non-ferrous metal casting processes generate hazardous wastes, such as chromium, cadmium, and silica, which pose environmental challenges. Chinese foundries, a significant contributor to the global market, face increased production costs due to government regulations aimed at reducing air pollution. This will likely impact the prices of non-ferrous metal casting products in China and, consequently, the global foundry equipment market growth during the forecast period.
The Foundry Equipment Market faces significant challenges in various industries such as automotive, machinery, and aerospace. Casting products, including Aluminum and Steel castings, are in high demand for Passenger cars and Light trucks due to the shift towards Lightweight materials and Energy-efficient vehicles. Emissions regulations and Product development cycles put pressure on the industry to innovate with Advanced technologies like 3D printing, Vacuum casting, and Robotics for Automation. Infrastructural development activities in sectors like Bridges, Buildings, and Roads require heavy machinery equipment like Die Casting Machines, Centrifugal Casting Machines, Induction Furnaces, Molding Machines, and Core Making Machines. The Shipbuilding industry also relies on these machines for constructing Energy-efficient vessels. Consolidation in the industry and the rise of Electric vehicles further add to the market dynamics.
